Captive portal user self REGISTER
-
I think that making this application use a real SQL backend (MySQL) would make it much more powerful and scalable.. Is this a possibility?
-
Freeradius support would be nice ;)

aneip,
tested this yesterday and it seems to work great, I only have two questions. First I get the error:
Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /var/db/cpelements/captiveportal-register.php on line 29
It continues on and works fine just displays the error.
The other issue is mainly my problem not knowing how to properly set this up. How do I direct users to this page first?
-
Need to add some more checking. The error will only occur when the no user register. Once there is at least 1 user than the error should not occur. If you still got error msg even after got user please feedback here. Will check further.
You can put the link in login page, the page that user see when they need to login. This page you set inside captive portal GUI page.
bairdmj,
Yes it possible to use the mysql. By using freeradius you can configure it to read from MYSQL. But it not really easy if wanna do it using GUI. I think php prepaid already done most of the jobs. Just need to point freeradius to php myprepaid DB. But once you setup mysql it better to setup freeradius inside that machine too rather than inside pfsense.
Basically what I mean is, you need something like 'Hotspot Management System' which consist of mysql, freeradius and php application to manage those data. Than just point pfsense to radius server.

Are you referring to a specific hotspot management system?

this work great. what im using now is pfsense for voip and now registation of new users but im using m0n0wall for my captive portal with radius thou visp.net as my database provider is it posiable to make it to where it would work like below.
Regisation (pfsense to www.visp.net) to login page (m0n0wall)
Would need the more info from the customer.
Name

zip
state
how they are going to pay
and what package they want. -

No.. I cannot find any free one.. Most of them is commercial.

chillispot, coovachilla, or wifidog, and paypalchilli, phpmyprepaid will about fill the bill

and what package they want.This would depends on visp.net API. Do they provide API to allow user registration? If they do, than this is possible. Depends whether PFSense php able to connect to their server, I think at least need CURL.
Currently what I do is, call built in library of PFSense to register a new members.

Download the following file, rename to php.
Use captive portal -> file manager to upload the file.
Access to the file using
http://192.168.1.1:8000/captiveportal-register.php
use ur own IP. Also can link from login page. No config need. Expired date can be set as needed, can hack those very easily. For eg, to set time out 1 months after register.
I don't know how bounty works, but I believe this is for a good of community. If you believe I help you, some donation can be made to my paypal email -> mhanif@[nospamplz]gmail.com remove [nospamplz]
Please dl the 2nd one, 2.54KB -> added config lock, forgot about that till last minutes.
I plugged this into my test box and it works pretty well.
It's a pretty cool start and would be nice to have in the system to build off of. I'm willing, time permitting, to write a simple patch for the CP to enable this from the services > captive portal page if there is interest.nb
